General Guidelines - IBM Aptiva 2170 Hardware Maintenance Service Manual

General Guidelines

The purpose of this Safety Inspection Guide is to help you identify possible
unsafe conditions on machines that are being inspected for a Maintenance
Agreement. Each machine has necessary functions items installed to provide
the operators and service personnel with an acceptable level of safety. This
guide lists only these items. Good judgment should be used to identify possible
safety conditions not covered by this Safety Inspection Guide.
If any unsafe conditions are present, you must find out how serious the hazard
is and if you can continue before you correct the hazard.
All current IBM Aptiva service supplements outlining feature/model changes,
along with the machine history, should be reviewed.
Check the following items:
•
Damaged, missing, or changed parts, especially in the area of the On/Off
switch and the power supply.
•
Damaged, missing, or changed covers.
•
Possible safety exposure from any non-IBM attachments.
